ssa.gov. If for some reason you can't get it there you can call 1-800-772-1213 and request an estimate. Last years earnings aren't on social security's records yet so it will be based upon your earnings through 2013. When you actually file a claim you will be asked to provide a copy of your W2 form (1040, Schedules C & SE and proof of payment of taxes if self-employed) so that your benefit amount will reflect ALL of your earnings. Your benefit amount is determined by what you've paid into the social security program; they will use your high 35 years.

It's a complicated formula. Go to the Social Security website and sign up for a My SSA account. It will tell you exactly what you are eligible for at ages 62, your normal retirement age (probably 66), and at 70. It also explains a bit about how Social Security works.
You'll have to check with SS. Your benefit depends on decades of earnings and no one here knows what you've been making over the last 30 years.
Go to the SSA website and enter the info into the benefits estimator. Generally at 62 you get about 2/3 of the full amount.
Check with SS office, no one here know your work/earnings history
my advice to you is to work as long as you can, and hopefully it will be till after 66. But even with SS I suggest if you're able to work that you still keep working.
It depends upon how much you made over the years. SS can tell you.
we won't know what yours is. you'll have to evaluate that via your earnings and go to the SSA site.
need a lot more info than you have given. contact SS to find out
